Pours a brassy light gold with a small head and not really much lace. Nose is not big, but still pleasant. Some light fresh pine as well as citrus, also mint. Mint is more apparent in the taste. Light in flavor, but crisp and refreshing with enjoyable hops. Hard to figure why this beer seems so unloved here. Looks like all the reviews are over 2 years ago...maybe they improved this beer since then?

L: Poured from a can to a pint glass. Had an orange / amber color and a clear consistency. There was a small amount of foamy head that lasted an average amount of time. Very little lacing to speak of.
S: Not a big aroma here, with hops, malt, and some orange peel.
T: Tasted of a fair amount of malt (more than expected for an APA), light citrus notes (orange), some hops, a strange metallic element, and a hint of pine. The problem with the flavor is that the ingredients that should be featured (hops, citrus) aren't. A very uneven taste.
F: A good amount of carbonation with a dry finish. Light-bodied.
O: On the whole, this is a forgettable beer. Could have been better.
